“Become the kind of leader that people would follow voluntarily; even if you had no title or position.” – Brian Tracy
Have you heard this leadership quote from Brian Tracy?
Brian Tracy was born on the 5th January 1944, and is the author of over eighty books that have been translated into dozens of languages around the world. He has been a highly sought after motivational speaker for more than 30 years.
Not Everybody can Have the Title, But Everybody Can Have the Quality of a Leader
It’s as simple as that. Leaders build people up. They help people grow. They have the humility to take the blame when things go wrong and let their team take the credit when things go right.
Good leaders also see a little bit further than most people. They have a vision, understand the “why” behind what their team is doing, and have an idea of what will happen in the future so they can respond correctly.
It’s not easy being a leader. But anyone can start building these qualities within themselves today, and it doesn’t cost anything to do so.
Global polling firm Gallup found that only one in 10 people possessed the inherent ability to be a good leader. In fact, most employees were unhappy with their boss, their manager, or their leader and the way they did things. And that means there is always room for one more good leader if you have the skills, care about your team and are willing to grow.
Why not let that leader be you?
So be the kind of person that people would follow, even if you do not have the title of “leader”. Because if you do, and enough people follow you, then soon enough the title will come.
– David McLachlan
